General
The Virginia Highland area of Atlanta had its beginnings as a streetcar neighborhood. When streetcars ceased to be central to the growing city, VH (as residents call it) became the place to try new local flavors, whether it be music or cuisine. Today VH is a focus for up and coming musicians, specialty shops with offerings from local artists, and unique restaurants. This part of the city is known for its trendy appeal and unique businesses. The larger city of Atlanta is a thriving metropolis with international influence as the fastest growing city in the States. The mild climate with plenty of sunshine ensures that Atlanta is a beautiful place to live.
